Sanctuary... No love in the forums?

It's fun and I enjoy the way I enjoy Lost World or Relic Hunter, I don't need it to be perfect.

I enjoyed the first season a bit better, it had it's own style and a subtle creepyness. I found the second season focused a little too much on gun fights for the sake of gun fights. I can see car chases on any show.

I don't miss Ash, I found her pretty one-dimensional, although John had kind of pointed that out so sort of intentional. I like Kate better, she has an actual personality and likes and dislikes. I miss John. I find Nicola a hoot.

Mediocre CGI and lots of stock footage bought off the internet (or made from clip art) it's a low budget production that is just a bit of fun. It has good and bad episodes just like Trek.

I thought it showed a lot more promise when it was a web series, Would have loved to have seen more of David Hewlett character. But when it got picked up by scifi it seemed to lose something.
I think I was expecting something a little darker.

This I'll agree with. The Web series was just better. They changed too much, probably in an attempt to appeal to a wider audience.

Am I the only one who wanted Druitt & Tesla to become major characters?

I love it when they mix literary history with real life ala League of Extraordinary Gentleman, but they keep backing down from taking that one extra step.

I think I'll keep watching the new season, but unless they can give me better plots than, we've got the save this creature because it'll die otherwise, or it'll kill otherwise, or it'll be destroyed, or it'll destroy everything... I don't think I'll be coming back again after this year.

Of course I say that, and yet I still plan on watching Smallville next season.

For me its becoming one of the shows I will not always watch straight away, I'll save it for when I have nothing to do at the weekend.

I find Sanctuary mediocre to downright cringeworthy. Hubby watches it, simply because it's SciFi, but I can barely tolerate it most episodes. I think the only thing that really interests me about this generally mediocre show is Christopher Heyerdahl as Druitt (but it pains me to see him be the caveman character. Gimme strength!)---and he ends up getting very little to do.

I mean, just look at the season finale. They had the male lead break into a Bollywood-style dance number, for Christ's sake. I was embarrassed FOR the actor while watching it.

If it was just silly, I could handle it, but they throw in all these serious moments where everything is over-acted, over-played and oh-so-sanctimonious. The Amanda Tapping character is oh-so-perfect and brave, and the woman tht all the men far immediately in love with--Will, John, Tesla, etc. Bah. This is not the show for me.

I'm ready for it be cancelled now.

I concur wholeheartedly. Maybe I do hate the show. Yeah, I'm leaning that way.
